Alles OK. Das Ferienhaus ist geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Das Grundstück wunderschön. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Für ein Paar ist alles wunderbar. Bei mehr Personen könnte es schwierig werden. Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet. Leider kein Restaurant und keine Einkaufsmöglichkeit in fußläufiger Entfernung.
